Charles Manson Concept Band Brings Occult ‘VECTOR’ to 40 Clinton
This image has been archived or removed.
Walk past the departed Hillary Flowers at 40 Clinton Street. There’s now a taste of the occult occupying the storefront.
Blue neons in the window brightly announce “VECTOR,” while inside, Satanic images reign. A toilet seat bears the number of the beast (666), and sits right in front of a Charles Manson portrait; a t-shirt hanging from the ceiling nearby proclaims that the killer Manson is Jesus Christ. Total helter skelter. And what is all this shit, you may ask? It’s apparently the work of the LaBiancas.

The LaBiancas is a “Charles Manson concept band” featuring JJ Brine and Lena Marquise. They recently released their debut LP, Charles Manson is Jesus Christ, currently available on Spotify. Musically, the songs skew toward electronic dance and are mediocre, at best, aiming more for shock value than anything else. According to an interview in Asthma Magazine, 40 Clinton represents their art installation-slash-religious space, and will be freaking out the neighbors through the end of August. A tour of some sort is reportedly in the works for September.
